Dancer Dita Von Teese says Pilates is the secret to keeping in shape

Dita Von Teese – the burlesque dancer famous for her outrageously provocative routines – is teaming up with singer George Michael.

Dita, who was at the post-premiere party for Roman Polanski’s Wanted And Desired, tells me: ‘George wants me in the video of his next single and I’m on my way to London to meet him. I can’t wait.

‘I’m a huge Wham! fan and this will be the highlight of my career. I have been perfecting my routine and I’ve also been doing Pilates – my secret for keeping in shape.’

While the 35-year-old American was prepared to reveal how she maintains her 22in waist, she was coy about the rumours surrounding her love life.

Since splitting last year from the singer Marilyn Manson, she has been linked with Entourage star Jeremy Piven.

And at the Fendi party at Jimmy’z nightclub in Monte Carlo she was not short of male attention.

‘Both Dita and Sharon Stone were sitting at the centre table and were clearly on the lookout for a man,’ I’m told.

‘Sharon was dancing cheek-to-cheek with a handsome millionaire, while Dita was giving some lucky chap a very personal dance routine. She was flashing her stockings and almost fell out of her dress.’

It sounds as if Dita won’t be single for long.
